IRIS Official - As the Lights Go Out
[Verse 1]
Stone-cold, in the middle of a circus, but the lights are all on you
Try to fake the smile, but the curtain draws on you
When the crowd begins to cheer
It's a sign that the end is drawing near
Presenting the world when the lights go out
[Verse 2]
The tears fade right before their very eyes
But yours begin to shed
Fake it for a while, but the coursing darkness dreads
For behind each casting art
Is the image of a man who's torn apart!
Escaping the world, when the lights go out
[Chorus]
Fear not, I have descended before you even knew
I only told a minor few
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show, I drop the act and away I go
[Verse 3]
Stone throws for a friend with a message
But the message failed to send
Too many times I've bailed, 'cause the show's about to end
Like an intermittent break, like a purgatory sending me to shake
I walk off the stage, and the lights go out
[Verse 4]
You would've never believed me while smiling
You would've stopped to intrigue while I'm frowning
You would've helped just to shake it off
But it bled me dry!
Maybe you're not supposed to know
But would it kill to just remind yourself I'm gone?
I'm broken again, as the lights go out
(When the lights go out)
[Chorus]
Fear not, I have descended before you even knew
I only told a minor few
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show, I drop the act and away I go!
[Bridge]
By the time you hear me cry
I'll have lost you through thousands of voices
All blinded by the sounds, no remorse for me is found
And I am not meant to be chained to the ground
I have no soul, have no goal, have no promises
Yet the mask is in the way!
[Pre-Chorus]
So every time I take my leave
Oh, darkness please, oh, just leave me be
Holding on for life, I can't let you know I'm alive!
[Chorus]
Fear not, I have descended before you even knew
I only told a minor few
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show, I drop the act and away I go
[Outro]
By the time this little number ends, I'm gone
And you can't cure my mind
Stone-cold, in the middle of a circus, but the lights are all on you
